Organ of Corti braille poem

 

 

 

 

 

I wrote a short text to accompany the Organ of Corti which was designed to be translated into braille and included as an insert in the project programme booklet. Having first composed a 200 word text, the limits of fitting braille text to an A5 card, meant it had to be edited down to 20 words. The image shows part of the braille print. The text reads:

 

Underheard

listening to the

underheard; the Organ

of Corti smoothes

a kink in the sound

scatter, nudges

my attention in the

noisescape
